[CQ-Contest] Ga QSO Party This Weekend: W4AN Activity

[John Laney]

Hello all:

The Ga QSO Party will be this weekend, April 9 and 10.  We are planning 
on a lot of Ga activity, including mobiles covering most of the 159 
counties.  The rules of this contest allow operating on either mode (CW 
or SSB), but encourage operating on both modes.  I hope many of you will 
participate this weekend to the extent you can.  We have 159 counties, 
many of which do not have fixed stations regularly active.

KU8E has been authorized to use the new South East Contest Club 
callsign, W4AN, in this contest.  This is about a year and a week since 
Bill Fisher's untimely death.  All QSLs for W4AN (both for Bill's 
operations and for the club call) go via K4BAI.

You will find the rules at:  http://gqp.contesting.com/Rules.htm.  From 
the home page for GQP, you will find links to forms, logging program 
downloads, results from past years, and county planned routes for some 
of the mobiles/rovers.

There is a very nice plaque program for in-state, out-of-state, and DX 
stations at all three power levels, QRP, LP and HP.

73 and see you on the air this weekend!  73,  John, K4BAI.
